It does my head in because the only sport I watch on Kayo is AFL, yet it is by far my most expensive streaming service.

It beggars belief how bad Kayo's picture quality is. What intrigues me is live the quality is average at its best. But watch the same game on replay and it is considerably better Why? I watch NBL on Kayo and it is good as well why AFL?

Presuming they are streaming at a lower bitrate as there'd be a lot of simultaneous demand for the live stream (putting more pressure on servers), whereas replays are not all watched simultaneously.

Honestly, the amount of money being splashed around on these training centres makes me sick. $110M is like 1/10th of what Tassie are proposing to build an entire stadium. People are arcing up about the money being spent on the Tassie stadium, but not excessive Taj Mahal type training facilities of the Hawks, Essendon, Geelong,Collingwood etc.

All this money being splashed around, while country and suburban footy scrapes for funds.

The AFL need to put in-place some kind of equalisation measure and cap on excessive facilities development. Obviously the big clubs have already cashed in, so they need to impose a tax on the to provide a similar level of amenities for those that haven't yet.

It's pretty sad to see the state of many of the suburban club grounds and their facilities, let alone further out.

Thank christ for your pronunciation guide there Ghosty. I would have gone with something problematic like Ay-oy-ff or worse otherwise.

Seriously do you think players come off the ground for a slash in games same in training.

Except they are in the rooms with toilet access before the game and at half time, plus having the ability to dart down to the rooms while rotating through the bench. At training at Gosch's they are hundreds of metres from toilets while sometimes doing multi-hour sessions.

It is a disgrace that the only facilities at their disposal is a open sided shelter partially covered with a zip-tied screen and not even a porta-loo.

That's my future coach rearranging my Dad's face guys not lieing. *awkward*

Is it too cynical to view this as the new club leadership front-loading poor financials for a more positive spin in future years?

separate topic…

Anyone else experiencing connection problems with Demonland?

Yes, getting quite a lot of CloudFlare commection timed out pages coming up. Not sure if that's due to traffic given interest in the draft, or residual from a global issue CloudFlare's systems had last night.

if you miss the timer for your pick, do you just get no one?

That would be hilarious 🤣. Like getting timed out in cricket taking too long to get to the middle.

I might go and watch Titanic and hopefully once that finishes we might be nearly up to our first pick.

Edo was walking on air. She’s itching to get back out there on Saturday.

I made a request to her. It was about a former Dees player who now plays for North and what I’d like Edo to do to her. I barely finished the sentence when she emphatically said, “[censored] oath I will!” 😂

Thst one should be high on our hit lisp

Umpires have let some blatant Lions throws go unpunished. Typical.

I do understand the notion of choice and how father/son works - I guess I was being a bit more nuanced around where CP5’s allegiance will end up…

So in the herald sun sport from our double page spread, there's the article on trac. Gee I know he was a good player but he's pretty confident of himself.

That's the problem right there.

Best of luck for the future, Taj. 😥

So which of Gold Coast or GWS will the AFL draw us to play in Round 1 next year?

Yeah his B&F speech said it all saying it’s his job reinforced he had checked out, interest to know what how his teammates rate him as I dare say there is more to this & to hang on the club on his treatment during his injury, can’t be the defining moment

He was waving his arms around on field cracking the [censored] in games in 2024 before his injury. It is clear his disaffection with the club preceded his KB injury. The explosion of "Trac / Trac camp unhappy" leaks post-injury have a strong whiff of exploitation of that event by his inner circle to help him get out of the club. And why? We were on a downward trajectory (from 2021 to 2022 to '23 to '24), and The Brand wanted success.

He was supreme around 2021 and played possibly his career-best game in our Premiership, but sadly I'm glad to see the back of his toxicity these last couple of years.

Ok now please don't package all our picks to move up the draft order for another Tholstrup.

Or is he? Not according to Kano.

Lemmie guess - he'd be a good fit for Port? [censored] off Kane Cornes.
